Book excerpt: John Benumeane, a budding solar engineer who's just moved to Southern California, learns the hard way how cruel and unrelenting Mother Nature can be. It's the winter of 2004; an El Niño is back with a vengeance. A horrific weather-related accident--a car collision with a two-hundred-year-old eucalyptus tree--lands John in the hospital, where he'll spend the next two years in a coma, locked in a struggle between life and death. He awakens in a different world than the one he left. Although he suffers no physical impairment from the terrible accident, he finds he has a supernatural power that slowly takes control of his life. His own impetuous behavior is rivaled only by that of his wife--who in her own bid to survive the lonely years without him, has reinvented herself in ways that defy description. The challenge for the two young lovers is to find common ground that will lead them back to the life they once knew. But that ground is elusive and unstable, prompting John's wife to turn to John's old college friend for help--and when she does, the plot thickens. By then a drought has gripped the Lower Forty-Eight and the real estate market is hyperventilating from reckless malfeasance, with John's wife in the center of it all. The people she works for want to own John and the very special gift he's come to possess, but she has other ideas. Her story-within-a-story has twists and turns that will keep you guessing till the very end.

Download or read book Waterfall written by Brian J. Hudson and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Niagara Falls in the United States to Angel Falls in Venezuela, Victoria Falls in Africa, and Hannoki Falls in Japan, waterfalls provide some of the world’s loveliest panoramas. With their glistening spray and deafening roar, these astonishing natural wonders attract hordes of people each year who seek out, with cameras in hand, these terrifying and sublime examples of natural beauty. While waterfalls have often been considered in terms of their picturesque qualities, their rich cultural background has been neglected. In Waterfall, Brian Hudson portrays these marvels in a new light. He explores the many myths and legends waterfalls have inspired in cultures ranging from Native American to Celtic and Indian, and how they have been depicted in art, literature, film, and music. He also examines their influence on architecture and landscape design, as manmade waterfalls begin to be a staple of parks, gardens, and backyard landscaping. Hudson also discusses the ecology of waterfalls and the conflict that arises from their importance as both a source of hydroelectric power and tourist attractions in many countries. As erosion takes its own toll, the additional environmental impacts of human exploitation could be devastating. A superb addition to the library of any nature lover, this beautifully illustrated book provides a fascinating look at the history and value of these stunning cascades of water.

Max Wideman, Fellow, PMI Every year technology projects face hard decisions about how to mitigate risk and address challenges as teams work on creating useful solutions to deliver promised business value. Those decisions impact scope at every step and help to evolve it until the final product is delivered and implemented. Scope can longer be set in stone! This book will help project teams understand how and when scope changes and evolves as a part of a living-development process by answering the ultimate question: “Are we doing the right things the right way?” Going Beyond the Waterfall explains how to define scope at the outset of a project. It provides a solid model for predicting and managing solution scope across a project life cycle where the decisions and actions of every team member contribute to that evolutionary process. In addition, it identifies the impacts that key tasks and activities will have on scope and how each can be managed effectively to prevent unnecessary scope creep and reduce run-away projects.
